Back in October, the officialWicked: For GoodInstagram account revealed Domingo as the new star of the whimsical cast. In an interview with Deadline published Oct. 16,director Jon M. Chu teasedthat a famous actor would be voicing the role of the Cowardly Lion, further revealing that he reached out to Domingo (then unnamed) over Instagram about the gig.
"I was like, 'It's not a ton of lines, but maybe you have a little time. I know you're busy. I'll come to you,' " Chu said. "He was like, 'Why the f--- not, let's go!' And then we went ahead and recorded the lines."
Before joining theWickedpress tour, Domingo promoted his other film,The Running Man, and showed off his impeccable taste for menswear while at it.
